\VA LTER PLATE DRAWER-PULL.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 647,598, dated April 17, 1906. Application filed August 31, 1899. Serial No. 729,092. (No model.)

To all whom, it may concern:

Be it known that we, WALTER J. DoLsoN and WILLIAM P. DOLSON, citizens of the United States, and residents of Arcola, in the county of Douglas and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Drawer-Pulling Device, of which the following is a specification.

Our invention relates to improvements in drawer-pulling devices, in which the raised rim and plate are so arranged that the plate readjusts itself as soon as released. We attain this object by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 represents the face of the drawer with the drawer-pull attached. A shows the rim. B shows the plate. The points 0 and C are the pivots upon which the plate turns.

Fig. 2 represents the under side of plate B, showing the weight and finger-hold D. The weight is used to cause the plate to readjust itself when the pressure is removed.

Similar-letters refer to similar parts throughout the views.

To operate the drawer pull, place the thumb upon the plate at point B, with the thumb-nail up. Push the top of the lid in and catch the finger-hold D with the fingers to pull out the drawer or place the tips of the fingers against the plate at point B, palm up. Push the top of the plate in and catch the rim with the tips of the fingers to pull out the drawer.

WVhat we claim as our invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is- In a drawer-pull the combination of the raised metallic open rim with the plate journaled at each end in said rim and Weighted upon one side, substantially as and for the purpose described.

In testimony whereof we have signed our names to this specification in the presence of 7 two subscribing witnesses.
